What made you smile or laugh today? Part IV

The new apartment is so much cooler than the previous one was. There are big, beautiful trees outside and the apartment doesn’t get the almost 24/7 sunshine treatment like the old one did.

I’m actually enjoying the warm weather now that I can come home and not boil and I can sleep no problem. Ahh, now I kinda get why people like summer.

And I bought a new dress, that made me smile, too. And ice cream.
 
Trolling is sometimes too funny.

Someone was asking whether walking or bicycling is better to lose calories. One answer was:"Obviously walking, everyone knows that bicycling doesn't burn calories at all and too much bicycling makes you even gain fat."

So, of course, someone chimed in with:"Oh really, explain to me the correlation of bicycling and getting fat.", not really getting the sarcasm.

It was amusing, so I answered:"Well, when you bicycle, your feet are always resting on the pedals, they are only moving the same amount forward than they do backward, so you lose 0 calories, it evens out. And when you let your bike roll, then you gain energy back."

So far, so good.

But then someone was responding to me:"you serious?" and now everyone else joins in with:"Sure, didn't you know that?", "Well, I was told the same!", ...

Yup, kind of terrifying when they take you seriously.
When I was younger and had more faith in humanity, we got a really stupid routine to follow at work. I overexaggerated it unbelievably to point out how idiotic it was.
It was held up as an example for everyone at the next staff meeting. 😱
I looked closely for signs that my boss was trolling me back, but had to come to the sad conclusion that she was serious.

The workplace...

I'm still mad from the last meeting. 😅
 
Finding out that the dreaded Saturday night task at work was actually being done on Saturdays bc the sexual harasser was out for a month. Unfortunately, she was back and she thought she could touch me inappropriately again. Fucker.
